This is a very simple fish fry dish.....I make this very similar to tandoori chicken...

I mix all the ingredients and marinate the fish with it for few hours and shallow fry it........Basically all tandoori food are cooked in oven....But I like to shallow fry my tandoori fish....

Another simple way of making to tandoori fish is......I buy tandoori chicken masala from store and use it for fish and cook as directed in the box....This make work little bit easy.....But making our own masala tastes great right?....

Procedure :

1. Toast almonds in a baking pan until skins begin to loosen, about 6 minutes. Rub the nuts with a kitchen towel to remove skins as much as possible. Then cool to room temperature.

2. Now grind the almonds as fine as possible. (1 or 2 teaspoon sugar can be added to make the mixture grind Finlay and easily)

3. Whisk together flour, baking powder, salt in a small bowl.

4. Cream together butter and brown sugar in a large bowl until pale and fluffy.

5. Add nut mixture and beat until combined well.

6. Beat in eggs and vanilla. Now add flour Little by Little and from a dough.

7. With floured hands, form dough into a ball and flatten it into a 5-inch disk. Wrap in plastic wrap, chill it until firm, at least 2 hours.

Preheat the oven to 350°F.

8. Roll out the disk of dough into 1/8 inch thick. Using a round cookie cutter, cut as many rounds as possible.

9. Now using a small shape cutter( I used heart shape cutter) cut the center of the already cut out round cookies. Half of the round cookies must be left plain.

10. Transfer all the cookies to a ungreased cookie sheet. Bake the cookies for 10 to 15 mins or until edges are golden. Remove and cool them completely.

11. Now spread the raspberry preserves on the round side of the baked cookies. Dust the powder sugar on the other half of the cookies(Which has the heart shape cuts on them) and top it with the cookie which has the raspberry preserves(like a sandwich)

Carrot halwa is one of the traditional sweet in Punjab cuisine....Popularly known as "gajar halwa"... They are simple and Delicious....Carrots are most healthiest vegetable....

Carrot halwa is one of my favorite dessert.....This can be made in both stove top and as well as in the microwave.....The only difference is it cooks fast in microwave... So I love making it....If I have any unexpected guest to my house.....The only dessert I make is carrot halwa, as all the ingredients are available in my pantry and refrigerator.....

I cook the carrots with milk in the microwave with some flavoring and then add milkmaid to it. How simple is this............Can't go wrong with it..... The same thing can be done in stove top also......

One of the most easy and fruity appetizer is my watermelon skewers. I love this because they are so cool and of course they are very easy to make. Perfect for summer parties.

Watermelon is a very cool fruit perfect for summer. They are popular for there crunchy texture and for there coolness, so i dint want to make something which is going to change the crunchiness and the coolness of it.....So i thought of making something special to go along with it......And came up with this dip.

I mix cream cheese and tangy sour cream and lime juicy for some freshness. I also add some honey for sweetness. For more freshness and brightness i also add mint and chill it for some time. And serve with watermelon.

This is a very refreshing dip for summer fruits.......especially for watermelon because the crunch from the watermelon and the creaminess from the dip marry together greatly...And become a perfect appetizer or a evening snacks for summer... Coooooolllllllll.....
